Minor/Repaint: A little Starscream Sticker Action...

I wasn't about to as nuts as others in making Classics more G1 (Fantastic job done by all on that by the way). but I figured that Screamer should be identified as a Decepticon by more than the rub off symbol placed on the tip of the wing.

What's the best way to remove the rub symbol so that it can be re-applied?

Carefully.

I'd say probably gently lifting a corner with the tip of an X-acto knife and then gently peeling it off would be the way to do it. If they're anything like the original rub-symbols (which they look to be), then be very careful that you don't end up separating the top layer of clear plastic from the heat-sensitve layer.

Overlord II, don't you fret, I'm in the same boat you are. I fixed up Starscream using some unapplied stickers from my G1 re-issues. See:

Starscream got the nose cone stickers from my Commerative Re-issue Skywarp and Starscream. Years ago, my first Decepticon jet was Dirge, and he was the only jet I ever put the nose cone sticker on. Afterwards I desided that I didn't really like it, so on all of my Decepticon jets from that point on never got the nose sticker. I saved them for other Decepticon, whose sticker wore out.

I just wish that Screamer's guns weren't so big. They hide the Decepticon emblems, when ever the weapons are placed in the proper arm mounts.
